Trafficking

Yesterday I have been on nice presentation about selling people and modern slavery in the west countries (called illegal imigration).
It seems my country is both land of emigration but also some imigration (less imigration, our population is droping down).
Are we going "west" to the "wild west frontier and no low on the border" or are we going to the western style democracy?
Or both? Or none?
I prefere secure life, no dream of better future that happend to be a modern slave mind control.

Cherry

Today is the shopping day. Here, in Zagreb, is very cold (snow and ice). So I decide to find some nice vegetables.
And in nice, special shop there is lot of fruits, oriental and grown in hydroponic unit around the globe.
I bought some, but suddenly - well, surprise! Bill was... too big.
A man in front of me bought some cherry. And I check the price - 255 kn for 1,70 kg. It is 150 kn a kilo ( about 25 usd).
And I asked salesmen: who buy that nice fruits? He told me: you will not believe, but they buy it as normal... every day fresh.
Nice. to buy few cherry for a buck. We are one happy nation. Best for some, not for all...

In the papers, there are articles about how somebody unknown stole from pesons tons and tons of food, and in our state store we do not have some basic need if catastrophy happens...
No future. Just now.
But life go on, tommorow is a new day...
